How to eliminate pores on the back of the hands if you have "already removed hair".
Some people suffer from pores on the back of their hands,
I've been looking up ways to get rid of pores, and all I can find is hair removal. What should I do if I already have hair removal?"
I wonder if there is any other way to make the pores on the back of my hands less noticeable besides hair removal?"
'I'd love to know if there's a way to get rid of pores on the back of your hands other than creams and serums.'
Some of you may feel this way.
Hello, I am a doctor at Smart Skin Clinic, a cosmetic dermatology clinic.
You want to do something about the pores on the back of your hands, but when you search, all you find are articles recommending hair removal, and for those who have already removed hair, what should you do? You may be wondering, "What should I do?
In fact, hair removal is an effective method for the pores on the back of the hands. However, those who have already had hair removal cannot use this method.
For such patients, ECM preparations such as "Profilo," "Snekos," and "JalPro Classic" and PRPF injections are effective.
In this article, the cosmetic dermatology clinic would like to explain in simple terms what ECM preparations and PRPF injections are and why they can eliminate pores on the back of the hands.

Causes of prominent pores on the back of the hands
The pores on the back of the hands are noticeable,In conclusion, because "sagging pores" occurwill be.
In fact, the pores found on the back of the hands often appear vertically open and are classified as "sagging pores. Sagging pores are pores that become more prominent as the skin's firmness and elasticity decrease.
Essentially, elastic skin serves to tighten pores. However, when skin elasticity and firmness decrease, the skin around pores tends to fall into the pores, causing them to widen and become more prominent.
So what causes the loss of firmness and elasticity of the back of the hands?
Causes include the following
- adding to one's years
- dryness
- UV Damage
- Lifestyle Disruption
Each will be explained in detail.
adding to one's years
As we age, the skin on the back of our hands gradually becomes thinner. This is one of the body's natural changes associated with aging, as the components that support the skin's structure, such as collagen and elastin in the dermis layer of the skin, decrease.
Normally, elastic skin serves to tighten pores, but as skin becomes thinner, this tightening effect is weakened and pores tend to widen. Widened pores create shadows, and as a result, pores become more prominent.
dryness
The back of the hand is thin with few sebaceous glands, so the skin is naturally prone to dryness.It is.
As dryness progresses, the skin surface becomes firmer. Dryness also decreases the moisture content inside the skin, causing the skin to lose elasticity and firmness, making it more difficult to close pores.
In addition, when the skin barrier function is weakened by dryness, the skin becomes more sensitive to irritation, resulting in rough skin and a rough texture. When skin texture is disturbed, the skin around pores becomes less smooth and pores are clearly visible.
Dryness also delays skin metabolism (turnover). When skin metabolism (turnover) is slowed down, dead skin cells accumulate and the activity of cells that produce skin elasticity and firmness is also delayed.
These multiple factors influence each other and further contribute to dry skin, making pores more visible.
UV Damage
UV rays reach deep into the skin and destroy collagen and elastin. This loss of skin elasticity causes pores to widen.
UV rays can also disrupt skin turnover and cause hyperpigmentation around pores. This can cause pores to appear darker and more prominent.
Lifestyle Disruption
Irregular lifestyle and nutritionally unbalanced diet have a negative impact on skin health. In particular, a lack of vitamins and minerals can slow down the skin's metabolism and make pores more easily clogged. Smoking, stress, and lack of sleep also disrupt skin turnover and lead to the appearance of pores.
Self-care to reduce the appearance of pores on the back of the hands
It is important to be aware of the following self-care tips to reduce the appearance of pores on the back of the hands.
- moisturizer
- Measures against ultraviolet rays
- Review of Lifestyle
However,Self-care alone is difficult to improve pores and is only effective in preventing them from getting worse.It may be better to think of it as a
moisturizer
One of the causes of visible pores on the back of the hands is dryness, which can be reduced by improving the dryness of the skin. Use moisturizing creams and hand creams on a daily basis, especially after washing hands and before going out. Products containing moisturizing ingredients such as ceramide, hyaluronic acid, and glycerin are effective.
Measures against ultraviolet rays
UV rays fall year-round, so UV protection should be taken regardless of the season.
In addition to applying sunscreen cream on a daily basis, protect the back of your hands from UV rays by using UV-cut gloves when going outside.
Review of Lifestyle
Disruptive lifestyle habits, in particular, slow skin turnover and make pores more noticeable. Smoking and excessive alcohol consumption are also factors that accelerate skin aging.
Try to avoid stress as much as possible and incorporate moderate exercise and relaxation to maintain healthy skin.
Recommendations for eliminating pores on the back of the hands｜ECM formulation
If you look online for ways to improve the pores on the back of your hands, you will find many pages that refer to hair removal. The reason for this is that hair removal physically removes the hair, making it easier for the pores to close. However, for those who have already had hair removal, they may feel discouraged because they cannot remove hair anymore.
Conclusions,ECM formulations are an effective method for those who have already lost hair.
ECM formulations are a general term for mainly non-cross-linked hyaluronic acid formulations, specifically "Profilo," "Sunekos," and "Jalpro.
First, I will explain why ECM formulations are effective for pores and the characteristics of each formulation.
Why ECM formulations work for pores
ECM preparations are a generic term that primarily refers to non-cross-linked hyaluronic acid preparations. Non-cross-linked hyaluronic acid is hyaluronic acid that is not cross-linked, which makes it easier for the hyaluronic acid to spread and penetrate.
Hyaluronic acid (= cross-linked hyaluronic acid) conventionally used in the beauty industry is "cross-linked" to hold hyaluronic acid together in order to make it stay in the same place as long as possible.
Non-cross-linked hyaluronic acid, on the other hand, is intended to spread hyaluronic acid widely across the skin and diffuse its effects. By allowing hyaluronic acid to permeate the skin, the moisturizing and cell-activating effects of hyaluronic acid can be delivered deep into the skin.
ECM formulations are effective for pores because of the following effects of non-cross-linked hyaluronic acid.
Hyaluronic acid has the property of attracting and retaining large amounts of water.
Hyaluronic acid delivered deep into the skin moisturizes and softens the skin from deep within. Moisturized skin regains firmness and elasticity, and pores are reduced.
In addition, cell metabolism is also activated by the distribution of moisture. The surface texture of the skin is also improved and pores become less noticeable.
Hyaluronic acid has cell-activating properties.
We have explained that aging and various other factors cause a decrease in the components that support skin structure, such as collagen and elastin in the dermis layer of the skin, which are the causes of prominent pores. Collagen and elastin are produced by fibroblasts in the dermis layer.
Hyaluronic acid works to activate various cells, including fibroblasts, so that these components are multiplied. When cells are activated and the skin regains its firmness and elasticity, pores become less noticeable.
By the way,Hyaluronic acid thus acts on cells in the dermal layer to restore skin firmness and elasticity.ECM RemodelingIt is called.
Each of the ECM formulations we will discuss is expected to have this ECM remodeling effect. However, each formulation has its own characteristics due to differences in the molecular weight of the main ingredient, non-cross-linked hyaluronic acid, and other ingredients in the formulation.
I will explain the characteristics of each ECM formulation.
PROFHILO injection
PROFILO is a formulation containing high concentrations of two types of non-cross-linked hyaluronic acid, high molecular weight and low molecular weight,Penetrating power to penetrate deeply and widely in multiple directions."can be said to be characterized by
This penetration is stronger than that of other non-cross-linked hyaluronic acids and is believed to penetrate deeper into the skin.
If Profibro can deliver the benefits of hyaluronic acid to the subcutaneous tissue through this penetration, healthier, plumper skin can be expected.
Profibro is also characterized by its fixed injection points. Because of its strong penetration, it is believed that just injecting it at 10 predetermined points on the back of the hand will spread over the entire back of the hand without any problem.

SUNEKOS 200
SNECOS is a formulation containing low molecular weight non-cross-linked hyaluronic acid and six amino acids as its main ingredients. This formulation is often applied over a wide area, such as the entire face and neck, to improve skin elasticity and firmness.
Amino acids are necessary materials for the synthesis of collagen and elastin, and in addition, they promote the activation of fibroblasts.

Jal Pro Classic
Jalpro Classic is a formulation containing low molecular weight non-cross-linked hyaluronic acid and four types of hyaluronic acid as its main ingredients. It has high moisturizing power and is expected to improve fine wrinkles and rough skin caused by dryness, as well as promote collagen production and improve skin texture.
To learn more about the Jal Pro Classic, please refer to this page.
What is the difference between Snecos 200 and JalPro Classic?
SUNECOS 200 and JalPro Classic are both formulations containing non-cross-linked hyaluronic acid and amino acids, and both are expected to improve skin firmness and elasticity. Although the two formulations are often compared, the difference between them lies in the type and ratio of amino acids in the formulation.
Contains low molecular weight non-cross-linked hyaluronic acid and six amino acids (glycine, L-proline, L-lysine, L-leucine, L-alanine, and L-valine).
It features a unique combination of low molecular weight non-cross-linked hyaluronic acid and four amino acids (glycine, L-proline, L-lysine, and L-leucine) in a different ratio than SUNECOS 200.
Both formulations have similar ingredients and share many of the same claimed benefits, such as "improved firmness and elasticity and reduction of fine wrinkles. There is no clear data that either is superior to the other.
It can be effective in improving pores on the back of the hands and restoring skin elasticity, but it is important to choose according to skin conditions and individual needs.
PRPF injection
PRPF injections are not an ECM preparation, but I will explain how they can be used to improve pores on the back of the hands.
PRPF injections are a type of regenerative medicine that uses growth factors extracted from one's own blood.
An original preparation of polyplatelet plasma (PRP) taken from autologous blood, plus fibroblast growth factor (FGF), is created and injected into the back of the hand to promote skin regeneration and repair.
The difference is that while ECM preparations activate fibroblasts with hyaluronic acid, PRPF injections activate fibroblasts with fibroblast growth factor (FGF), a type of growth factor.
PRPF injections stimulate the production of collagen and elastin, and the dermal layer is filled, resulting in plump skin on the back of the hands and less visible pores.
The four procedures described in this article are summarized in the table below for your consideration.
| PROFHILO injection | SUNEKOS 200 | JALUPRO injection Classic | PRPF injection | |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| hyaluronic acid(at sentence-end, falling tone) indicates a confident conclusion Molecular weight | macromolecule Low molecular weight | Low molecular weight | Low molecular weight | long vowel mark (usually only used in katakana) |
| amino acid | long vowel mark (usually only used in katakana) | 6 types | 4 types | long vowel mark (usually only used in katakana) |
| Other | long vowel mark (usually only used in katakana) | long vowel mark (usually only used in katakana) | long vowel mark (usually only used in katakana) | growth factor |
| Price | 60,000-160,000 yen | 30,000-60,000 yen | 40,000-90,000 yen | 140,000-500,000 yen |

Summary: ECM formulations and PRPF injections are effective in improving pores on the back of the hands.
Causes of prominent pores on the back of the hands include aging, dryness, UV damage, and lifestyle disorders, all of which contribute to a decrease in skin firmness and elasticity.
Although there are some self-care measures that can be taken to improve pores, it is difficult to restore skin elasticity and firmness, the underlying cause, through self-care alone, and it is difficult to expect long-term results.
This article introduced ECM preparations and PRPF injections as effective procedures for pore improvement. These procedures directly approach the dermal layer, which is responsible for skin firmness and elasticity.
Each formulation has its own characteristics, so you should choose the one that best suits your needs.
